There is a difference in the bracket mounting between the gas and the diesel version of this truck.

If your vehicle is a Chevy HD diesel with a DEF tank, start here with step one for installing the brackets.

If your vehicle is not, proceed to step 4 for installing the brackets.

Because this kit includes brackets for either type of vehicle, when you are finished with the installation,

you will have one bracket that will not be used.

The passenger's side is shown. The front of the vehicle is to the right in the picture.

Locate the front body shock mount.

TOOLS REQUIRED

Remove the bolt from the body shock mount at each of the mounting locations using a 21mm socket.

Put the body shock mount bolt through the hole in the brace [D] and thread it back into the body shock

mount. Align the braces so that they are perpendicular to the side of the vehicle. Tighten the bolts

to 44 ft-lbs plus another half turn.

The driver's side is shown. The front of the vehicle is to the left of the pictures.

Locate the bracket mounting locations on the inside of the rocker panel. Shown below is the driver

side of the crew cab. The front of the vehicle is to the right side.

NOTE:

For regular cab

trucks there will not

be a middle mounting

location.

Depending where your vehicle was manufactured, the front and middle top mounting locations

may have weld nuts instead of open hole. If this is the case, the bolt will thread into the weld nut

and the clip will not be used.

Install the 8mm U-nut [F] in all of the mounting locations, unless there is a weld nut.

Thread an 8mm bolt [E] part way into all of the top mounting locations.

If your vehicle has the weld nut in the front and middle locations, thread the bolt part way into the

weld nut.

Slide the open end of the slot in the driver side brace [B] over the 8mm bolt.

Attach the bottom mounting location using the 8mm bolt [E].

Tighten the 8mm bolts using

a 13mm wrench.

Repeat this for all of the mounting locations.

Repeat these step on the passenger side using the passenger side bracket [C].

If you have an HD diesel and installed the brace in steps 1-3, then you will only use bracket [C]

in the middle and rear locations. The middle passenger location will be right next to the DEF tank.

You will need and open end wrench to fit between the DEF tank and the pinch weld to tighten the top bolt.

Place the bulb-seal gasket [H] onto the backlip of the runing board [A]. Cut the bulb-seal gasket

with tin snips so that it is flush with the ends of the board

Loosely attach the mud flap [G] to the end of the running board using

the 1/4" x 3/4" hex head bolt [J], the 1/4" flat washer [L], and the 1/4" hex nut [M].

Snug the bolts, but do not completely tighten at this time.

Using the slots in the brace as a guide, drill a 1/4" hole at each mounting location.

Clamp the board to the brace to hold it in position.

Attach the running board to the angle brace using the 1/4" x 1" ribneck carriage bolt [I],

1/4" flat washer [L], and 1/4" hex nut [M]. Tighten using a 7/16" wrench or deep well socket.

Pressing the flap up against the wheel well, drill two 3/16" holes through the hole in the mud flap

into the sheet metal of the wheel well.

Repeat for the rear of the board.

Check all hardware to make sure it has been tightened.

Repeat the assembly steps for the other side of the vehicle.

Attach the mud flap to the wheel well using two sheet metal screws [K] with a 3/8" socket.
